Discover Loubejac: Circular Trail, Church and Aveyron

Loubejac offers a range of options for a stay: the Circuit de Loubéjac–Courty for a walk or mountain-bike ride, the Église de la Nativité de Notre-Dame with its history and distinctive tower, and the Médiathèque-Relais. The public section of Plage de Loubéjac is also located on the Aveyron. When planning, you can therefore choose between a route, architectural history, a media facility, and access to this stretch of river.

The Circuit de Loubéjac–Courty

The Circuit de Loubéjac–Courty is a 5.8-kilometre circular route connecting Loubejac and Lamothe-Capdeville. It starts at the car park in Loubejac and can be travelled on foot or by mountain bike. Its length, named starting point, and two ways of travelling it provide different points of reference for planning the same route.

The trail winds over gentle ascents and descents through woodland, orchards, and fields. This describes both the route’s terrain and the landscape along the way. At its highest point is a viewpoint overlooking the Aveyron Valley. When planning your outing, you can take this viewpoint into account as a specific point on the circuit. Check current trail conditions before setting out.

Church and architectural history

The Église de la Nativité de Notre-Dame de Loubéjac is situated above the Aveyron, at the foot of the château. Its history can be dated precisely: the church was completed in 1849, blessed on 18 November of the same year, and made a parish church the following year. It was therefore completed and blessed in the same year; its elevation to parish church status came later.

The tower’s structure is also clearly defined. The church has a bell tower with a porch. This square porch is open on three sides; above it rises a small octagonal tower, topped by a spire with dormer windows. Octagonal means that the tower has eight sides; dormers are windows set into a roof. The sequence of porch, smaller tower, and spire helps distinguish the building’s different forms.

Médiathèque-Relais and Plage de Loubéjac

The Médiathèque-Relais in Loubejac, in the commune of L'Honor-de-Cos, offers areas for adults and young people, a phonotheque, and multimedia rooms with free internet access. Its facilities thus range from separate areas for visitors to audio media and internet use. If you are planning a visit, check the current service details in advance, as they may change.

The public section of Plage de Loubéjac is on the Aveyron and can be reached via a municipal path accessible only on foot. The access point is 130 metres from the stated location. Check the route on site again. For your planning, both the requirement to go on foot and the stated distance are relevant.
